Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the semolina, flour, salt and sugar.
- Add the egg and oil, then gradually pour in the lukewarm water while whisking to get a smooth, supple batter.
- Let the batter rest for 10 minutes so the semolina can swell.
- Add the baking powder and orange blossom water, then mix briefly.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and pour in a small ladleful of batter, without spreading it.
- Cook until small holes appear on the surface and the underside is golden, without flipping the pancake.
- Place the bechkito on a tea towel and serve lukewarm with butter and honey.
Variations and tips
Sweet version. Add a pinch of cinnamon and vanilla to the batter for a more fragrant taste.
